\title{Apply Fixed-width Formatting to a Data Frame}
\description{
  Generic, with a method for data.frame that right-justifies headers and columns,
  padding with spaces.
}
\usage{
\method{fixedwidth}{data.frame}(x, ...)
}
\arguments{
  \item{x}{ a data.frame }
  \item{\dots}{ extra arguments, ignored }
}
\details{
  There does not seem to be a way to get write.table to produce fixed-width output.
  \code{fixedwidth.data.frame} gives essentially the same result as 
  \code{print.data.frame}.  Columns and headers are padded, suitable for output
  to a file using the defaults for write.table (sep=' ').
}
\value{
  data.frame; all columns are \code{character}
}
